Yeah, its a bit of problem. Once I get a bit more of the game in there I'll try and arrange a time to meet up and load test the thing.

Next features:

a) Code comments and release the sourceb) Chat area safety/font/command system (/ me /bug /idea)c) New game area, something with a bit more personalityd) Actions, so you can actually enter that damn Inn!

a) A new map, its not meant to be great but it should be contained, if you find a way into the void, let me know.

b) Chat tidy up, you can't dump raw HTML into chat any more, the font is nicer and I've added a command system.

/ me - emote/bug <bug-desc> - logs a bug /idea <idea-desc> - logs a idea/recall - jumps your character back to the default location/who - tells you who's connected to the server/morph <character type> - morphs you avatar into a different character (be warned this is permanent). Try "/morph prof"/pos - tells you your current position according to the server

Many thanks to those who have been popping by, the time is much appreciated.

Diagonal arrows, god knows!!!! Linux doesn't seem to like the images which are correct as cursors.

I'm also really surprised by the performance. I had a guy (Owl) on at the weekend, he's got a Celeron 600 and voodoo 3 running linux and got pretty much dead on 30fps all the time, although I think he was using 1.5.

* Frame limit is now configurable, if you've got a good machine you can run with lots of FPS (not that it matters)* Fullscreen mode supported (at least Java support, which seems to means some windows machines only).* /quit - you can now quit, woo hoo* Few niceness tweaks* Movement speed increased (albeit only slightly)* /who has been fixed* /em is now supported in addition to / me* Timeouts, if you don't do anything for 15 minutes you'll get kicked off.

Internally, the network code is much more clever. Only sends "local" updates. Only sends updates when updates have actually happened. Hence, it'll probably have bugs

To those who have logged on and had a go, cheers, its been very useful. A few people seem to have discovered the /bug and /idea commands. Feel free to use them so far its been really useful stuff.

Finally, I'm sorry, you still can't get in the Inn, its next on my list.
